    It's just a hyper 212...

    Sounds 100% identical to ID Cooling SE-224-XT and looks identical, too! Except it costs 2x more (55 instead of $$7!)

    Snowman coolers are $12 USD.

    The dimensions are different and this has copper heat pipes while the SE-224-XT seems to have aluminum. Or are they plated copper heat pipes?

    But the fact that you immediately thought it was another very similar cooler suggests there isn't much to separate this from the rest of the market.

    Just get a Hyper 212 and be done with.

    how many variations of tower cooler with heatpipes can we make? that design has basically peaked many years ago. Only way to improve on that is to go the all-in-one water cooler units;

    pure air cooling wise, tower cooler design that fits the case of your choice and that's the best you will get.

    It’s not that simple but I agree that this is an example of too much competition in tech. Imagine if other areas would have even a fraction of the level of competition there is in conventional cooling.

    this is rated at 200W TDP...pff haha .... maybe if that fan can spin at 5K+ rpm

    'capable of dissipating 200 watts', huh? From a single stack/single fan air cooler *maybe* half the overall size of the Noctua NH-D15...? Call me officially 'skeptical'!
